grand national dark horse

[mollykins]

there was a horse that was raised in Wales i think, thats a bit of a dark horse, but having said that, it won the welsh national, even though it started off life quite badly, and at one point broke its leg, but is racing.

Does anyone knows its name?

Has it raced yet?

If no, what are its chances? If yes, how did it do?

Dream Alliance bred on an allotment, suffered an injury a couple of years ago which required stem cell surgery, had to check because it was pulled out of the National.

i'm very sorry askyourgran but it did run in the grand national , i had a fiver each way on it at 40/1

Where did it come, brian?

thanks for your answers, did you know that holiday want to make a film version of the horse's story? It'll be completely wrong and probably set on a farm in kentucky so that the americans can have all the glory.
